That Colts-Patriots matchup that looked so attractive in the preseason is losing its prime-time slot.
With Indianapolis winless and Peyton Manning-less, the NFL already has decided to move the Dec. 4 game off "Sunday Night Football" under its flexible scheduling policy.
The league will decide on a replacement by Nov. 22.
The NFL said that the game at New England would now be at 1 p.m. on CBS.
